How a Little Hippo and Crocodile Organized a Celebration for Their Friend, the Parrot

In a warm corner of the savanna, on the shore of a quiet, sandy lagoon, lived a little hippo named Mim. He loved splashing in the water, but he loved spending time with his friends even more, helping them and making them happy with his friendship. One of his closest friends was a cheerful little crocodile named Kassi, with whom he often played by the water and came up with fun games.

One day, Mim found out that their friend, a colorful parrot named Rio, would have his birthday the next day. Parrot Rio was known for his bright feathers and cheerful personality. He always lifted everyone’s spirits in the savanna with his stories and songs. Mim decided that Rio’s birthday should be celebrated in a special way to make the day unforgettable for him.

“Kassi, let’s throw a party for Rio!” Mim suggested to his friend. “We’ll decorate the lagoon with flowers and gather his favorite fruits. He’ll be so happy!”

Kassi eagerly agreed. They decided to start with decorating the lagoon to make it festive and beautiful. The little hippo and crocodile set off into the forest to find colorful flowers. They gathered bright red, yellow, and purple flowers to adorn the lagoon and create a true festive atmosphere.

When they returned, Mim carefully hung the flowers on branches around the water, while Kassi helped, handing him the flowers and figuring out the best way to arrange them. Everything around them became bright and cheerful, as if the lagoon had transformed into a magical place for a celebration.

The next step was to gather Rio’s favorite fruits. They knew he especially loved juicy mangoes and sweet bananas. Mim and Kassi went into the forest, where trees with these fruits grew, and began to pick the ripest ones. Mim placed the fruits in large leaves, making little baskets, while Kassi helped collect bananas by hanging from branches and reaching the highest ones.

“I’m sure Rio will be thrilled!” said Kassi as he placed the fruits in the basket. “We’re not just throwing him a party, we’re showing him how much we value his friendship.”

When everything was ready, the lagoon turned into a true celebration spot, surrounded by colorful flowers and fragrant fruits. Mim and Kassi eagerly awaited Rio’s arrival. Finally, in the distance, they saw the bright outline of the parrot flying toward them, unaware of the surprise that awaited him.

“Happy Birthday, Rio!” Mim and Kassi shouted as the parrot landed on a branch near them.

Rio was amazed! He hadn’t expected his friends to organize such a wonderful celebration for him. Seeing the decorated lagoon and his favorite fruits, he was overjoyed. “This is the best surprise!” he said, smiling and waving his bright wings gratefully.

The parrot thanked his friends for their thoughtfulness, and then they all began enjoying the fruits and spending time together happily. Mim and Kassi realized that organizing a celebration for their friend had brought them true happiness, as they gave him joy on his special day.

This day became not only a celebration but also a reminder that friendship is not only about fun and games but also about the ability to bring happiness and support each other. When friends are together, even the simplest day can turn into a magical celebration.

Thus ended a day that would forever remain in the hearts of all three friends. They understood that friendship is a treasure to be cherished and that making each other happy on special occasions is a special joy.
